Frustration Free Packaging Certification

WHAT IS IT?

Frustration Free Packaging is Amazon’s certification process that states that all packaged items larger than 18″ x 14″ x 8″ or items that weight 20 lbs. or more sold through Amazon must be certified as ready-to-ship within a tier of the frustration free packaging program.
